David Shaffer wrote the goddam BOOK on how to diagnose SERIOUS childhood mental health disorders. He's been writing the manual on how psychiatrists diagnose children.

"He was charged by the National Institutes of Health (NIMH) to develop a child version of the DIS for use in large field studies. The NIMH DISC "is a highly structured diagnostic interview, designed to assess more than 30 psychiatric disorders occurring in children and adolescents, and can be administered by "lay" interviewers after a minimal training period." Shaffer has led the development of several editions of the DISC, including the current version (NIMH DISC-IV), which is based closely on DSM-IV."

The field of Psychiatry is as corrupt and rank as any of the sciences (which is saying something) and they get to use us AND OUR KIDS as fucking lab rats. fucking cunts.
